SLK320
First time poster... Just got a 2002 SLK 320. Looks like someone tried to tow the car from the front stiffener and ripped the left side clean through. Want to DIY replace but need some advice. Can the job be done without welding? see pics... Thanks, Jim

I took a closer look and the job looks pretty involved. Thinking do I need to fix this at all and if so, could I simply drill out the "spot welds" between the horizontal and vertical posts? Then re-reld the new one in place. Any thoughts?
